What Are The Odds That Aliens Exist?

exactly! and we are just as alien as they are...welcome to the federation....
it's just about time that we thought of those blinking, soundless "ufo's" to be put to rest...there's more and not just those damn blinking
unidentified sparks which kept us bickering for millenia...another level please...

Look up the Hubble deep field image.....when you see that many galaxies in one very small point in the sky, it seems that it would be impossible for
there not to be intelligent life in the universe. The mathematics alone point to there being countless planets and moons with intelligent life. I
doubt that most of them could ever come to our planet but I`m sure that a handfull of them can.... and do.

The very fact that WE exsist is proof that intelligent life can evolve in our universe. To say we are the only ones would be like saying our sun is
the only star in the universe. We like to think we are so unique, but I think someday we`ll discover that we are nothing special.

The odds are zero, as in no evidence. Aliens from afar is just a romantic notion spurred by media, Hollywood, etc. As I said in another thread, we
see unknown aerial objects so believers automatically link the aerial object with being capable of traveling extremely long distances, light years if
you will, to get here to hang around in our sky and not get involved with inhabitants contrary to reported encounters which are in the hearsay
department.

Using an online drake equation calculator and using even
the most conservative estimates for each of the variables, I was able to calculate that there are probably 264 intelligent civilizations currently in
our galaxy, which contains 400 billion stars.

given the number of other galaxies in the universe, I'd calculate the odds of alien life existing at 100%

I would think there is a 99.9999% chance that alien life in some form exists. However, in a near infinant universe, near infinant possibilities are
present, so it's a possibility that alien life dose not exist simply because it's a "possibility". Remember though, this dose not take in to account
personal beliefs, and to that end, I woulod argue it's a certainty. Yet, being as direct to the actual question I can be, one has to admit it's not
100% certain. Unless ofcourse you have a Alien living in your basement which I do not.

I think that if you don't think there is any form of alien life out there is Flat out Naive. However as to the issuse they have visited earth I
don't know. I actually read a piece stating that UFO that humans see aren't from other worlds, but Humans from the future on a "Fact finding
mission" or even "School students on a Field Trip studing earth history". To me this makes sense why they don't want to be seen or known, due to
the space/time continuem they don't want too affect our timelime because it would alter theirs. Plus considering whats going on with the GFC and
North and South Korea just makes the history study fit into place
